Each year, thousands of visitors flock to Manhattan to experience all that it has to offer: shopping, dining, nightlife and, most important, culture. From museums to Broadway theater and historic New York landmarks, the Big Apple is home to an incredible array of creative, artistic and cultural things to do. The best part is, once you’ve seen all the prerequisites, there are still droves of unique attractions and sights that seem as though they belong "only in New York."

One such is the nearly indescribable Gazillion Bubble Show, presented at New World Stages. Now in its third year, this performance wows audiences with tricks, illusions and incredible feats using "gazillions" of bubbles. The MC of the spectacle is Fan Yang, a toy inventor, Guinness book record holder and lifelong bubble enthusiast. His childhood interest in these magical spheres proved to be more than just a phase, and after years of research and experimentation with various liquids, tools and special effects, Yang revealed his one-of-a-kind bubble artistry.

The 85-minute interactive show delights adults and absolutely mesmerizes kids of all ages with a combination of lasers, lights and bubble manipulation, all set to music. Yang creates bubbles of all sizes, shapes and colors, as well as smoke-filled bubbles, spinning bubbles and bubble sculptures, at points asking for audience participation for various tricks. The feats are unmatched and almost unimaginable. Yang holds 16 bubble-related world records, including the largest spherical bubble, the most people inside a single soap bubble, and the largest bubble wall. His most recent record involved enveloping an 8,800-pound elephant in a single bubble. And while you may be looking to keep the youngsters entertained, this sensory spectacular is guaranteed to bring back your own long-lost feelings of childhood wonder. You won’t believe it until you see it.
